<blockquote><a href="http://www.outsideonline.com/1924521/very-smelly-trail-skunk-takeover">The moment I realize I have skunks living in my yard, I become obsessed with them.</a> Within a few weeks, I have the skunk skull on my desk, a stack of articles on skunks, and a copy of The Biology of the Striped Skunk, by B. J. Verts—the definitive textbook on the animal, published in 1967. (In fact, it's the only textbook on the striped skunk.) I'm waiting for a bottle of skunk essence to arrive in the mail...</blockquote> "On my drive to work this morning, I caught an unpleasant whiff of striped skunk several times. For the past week, skunk musk has assaulted my nostrils with increasing regularity. Perhaps you've noticed the same thing. No, there isn't a sudden population explosion of skunks.

"How will legal marijuana affect our children? Our jobs? Our relationships? <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2016/08/06/serious-researchers-studied-how-sex-is-different-when-youre-high-vs-when-youre-drunk/">Or how about our sex lives</a>? That latter question inspired a research project by Joseph Palamar and his colleagues at New York University. "Since the landscape is changing, and marijuana continues to increase in popularity, research is needed to continue to examine if and how marijuana use may influence risk for unsafe sexual behavior," they write in the July issue of the journal Archives of Sexual Behavior."

Imagine the worst, most foul thing you have ever smelled. An overpowering mix of rotting meat, old socks that haven't been washed for weeks - topped off with the pungent waft of an open sewer. Imagine being covered in the stuff as it is liberally sprayed from a water cannon. Then imagine not being able to get rid of the stench for at least three days, no matter how often you try to scrub yourself clean. <a href="http://www.romow.com/culture-blog/skunk-bomb-israel-takes-chemical-warfare-to-a-stinky-new-level/">Introducing</a> Israel's new, non-lethal but highly effective and highly <i>offensive</i> weapon: <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/7646894.stm">Skunk</a>. tag:metafilter.com,2008:site.75328Thu, 02 Oct 2008 04:43:25 -0800flapjax at midnite
